+# Working groups
+
+AMP Project working groups bring together parties with related interests to discuss ideas for how AMP can evolve and to receive updates on new features and changes in AMP that are relevant to the group.
+
+Working groups include a group email alias as well as periodic video conferences (over Google Hangouts).
+
+The News Publisher Working Group is currently our only active working group.  See the [amp-news-publishers-wg Google group](https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/amp-news-publishers-wg) to express interest in joining this working group.
+
+We are actively exploring the creation of other working groups and will update this page as new working groups are created.
